Germans don't hate themselves, their government hates them.

Show me a country where this isn't true.

Somalia. There isn't really a functional government to speak of, so if the people even acknowledged the UN-backed central government exists, that would be something.

It's not continously true for Germans tho. When the green party makes it into the ruling coalition it always feels they care and a few good things happen for the benefit of most.

And then the next government takes those good things, which they have massively decried when they were the opposition, only to reimplement the exact same thing with a slightly modified name.

And Germans vote for those governments. (Technically they vote for the parties in the parliament and the resulting coalition can be a bit hard to predict, but y'know.)

There are definitely parties that you can vote for that hate Germans less than the current government parties.
